William Lloyd Garrison is willing to continue writing for The Independent under its new editor, Reverend Dr. Eggleston. He hopes that Mr. Bowen will decline to accept Oliver Johnson's resignation. He thinks Mr. Bowen should be grateful to Theodore Tilton for his skill in building up The Independent's circulation. Garrison discusses the "San Domingo affair" and the actions taken by Charles Sumner and President Grant in regard to it.
